On that day we expect here a division of Marshal SouLT's corps. They will continue their march farther, after halting one day. A house is got ready for his Excellency ; but it is thought that his stay bete will not be 106 g. The total of the French troops, who are to remain in the Mark of Branden burgh, is estimated at 8000 men. The 92d regi ment, whiCh was in garrison here; proceeded this morning to occupy the camp. A great quantity of ammunition has been conveyed from this place.— General ST.

Wesel is the rendezvous for the troops of Berg, Cleves, and Ahrenberg ; and Strasburgh for those of Bavaria, Wirtemburgh, and Baden., PARIS, AUG. 23.—The American schooner the Hope,,. C aptain Wood, arrived on the .18th inst. at Havre, in 14 days from Alexandria. She had a Gentleman on board,who was chargedwith dispatches for the Ambassador from the United States. He also brought a number of Colonial letters, which Were immediately put into the hands of the Com missary-General of Police. There were three chests on board, containing the skeleton of a singular ani mal, ,as a present from the President to the Na tional Institive. When the Hope cane away; the embargo remained in full force, and was likely to do so as longas ►he causes existed which occasioned it. . . We hear from Amsterdam, that the Tribunal of Prizes at Paris continues to condemn American ves= sets and their cargoes; notwithstandin g the reiterat ed remonstrances of the American Ambassador.— While BUONAPARTE was at Bayonne, General ARM STRONG sent his Secretary thither with , a strong Memorial, complaining of the injustice of some of these sentences : BUONAPARTE returned the Me moir to the Secretary, with a rebuke for the free dom of it, but. observed, that on his return to Paris he would enquire into the subje&. He still, howe4eri refuses redress, and the condemnations continue: • 731 Tt1s said that the Duke Dn. INFANTADO, on ap pearing before the Generals of the Provincial Forces, delivered documents, which he was able to secrete while in France, which fully prove the purity of his prihciples, and his honourable attachment to the King : ,among others it is said he has presented a written Memorial under the hand Of,FERDINAND VII. calling upon his Generals to reinstate the Duke to iiis post at the head of the army. In consequence, it is added, CASTANOS, PALAFOX, BLAKE, and 'Cu- EsTA;have conburred in recommending that heshould be declared Captain-Gerferal of Spain, and Genera= hiiiimo of the Armies. The formal notification of this will - probably be deferred till the establishment of a bodfbf sufficient authority to, command the obedi eucu and concurrence of the whole kingdom. t • • e.P.d.Nrsir pi; PERS: A LEN6IA, .—On the 28th June an army of 'robbers and aSsasSins; headed by MONCEY,. aa proaChed thewalli of thiS City) and sere recei - yed,by. the loyal citizens. in a manner which my language • cannot eXpress, bin Which will hereafter adorn the pages of history. The dod of armies crowned but heroic efforts with perfeEt success, and to him We ascribe the victory o that day. On the 2' l itti we 'ere it - donned of their approSch, and Gen. CARD was with hiS troops, chiefly peasants; in QUarto.— MoNCE'r attacked him, and, after art engagement of five - ho'urs, CARO thought it prudent to retreat, which heaccomplished with very trifling losS. The enemy were quartered that night In Quarto,.Ald a ye„ and Mistata ; we remained all night upoti our walls. About eight o'clock the following- day MONCEY sent a Messenger,' whotri he had made 'prisoner; to inforni the Junta of Valencia; that if they 'did not surrender the 'city it foiir inints, he would put the inhabitants to the sword; but if they would surren der peaceably, he would treat them as friends. The Junta deliberated on this message, and resolved to defend the,city, in which they were supported by all ranks of people. At half past twelve the enemy were 'in the streets of Quarto. Their advanced guard, consisting of twenty-seven men, were all cut to pieces. The enemy attacked the forts of Piseria and Santo Catalina, and persevered.with the greatest obstinacy for eight hours. Our troops and citizens fought with the greatest coolness, and never ev i nce d the least disposition 'to capitulate, and they withstand 'the incessant lifG Cf eighteen pieces of cannon. It is impossible t o d escr ib e t h e ent h us i asm Which pervaded P L it'; wfnen at e 4 aiidrqn tilrough , ( 11 -1 1 the day. They furnished every weapon they could find for those men who had not got arms.— ' The Clergy of every orter exhibited the same cou rage as, the soldiers, and always went and assisted where the danger was greatest. At last the enemy, finding that he could not make any impression that gave him any hope of success, retreated precipitately, and we followed him as far as Osut. We took 'possession of three pieces of artillery, which they were unable to take away with them, and a number ,of horses and fusees which they had taken from the countrymen. The next day d' pursued them, but they retired to Misrata. In Chiva the enemy Com;• mitteck every atrocity, assassinating indisCriminately those who hesitated to comply with theirdemands. is The plate and furniture of the churches thy carried ail away. In Soccorro they committed the same excesses. Indeed it is impossible to' calculate the damage the country has sustained throudi General 'IIIONCEY was in the garden of Porteros when the attack was made. In the battery of - St. Catalina we had eight nfen killed and 150 wound ed ; on the wf , !ls of the city we had about twenty wounded. For the last five days we have been bilOy employed in repairing tl4 damage done in different parts of the city, and every person contri butes in proportion to his ability. THE THEATRE.---The season commenced 'last night, at Covent-Garden Theatre, with the Tragedy of Macbeth, a proper compliment to the unrivalled excellence of our great dramatic Bard, and to the public taste. The house was much better attended than we ever remerfiber on an opening night, and was indeed crowded in all parts. KEMBLE was re ceived. on his entrance with the warmest applause. He seems to be in very good health, and he certain ly exerted his powers to the utmost. Often as he has performed the charaeler of Macbeth, there were some pasiages which, he gave with novel spirit and energy, and through the wiiole displayed a' masterly proof of skill and judgment. Mrs. SIDDONS also re ceived warm and reiterated marks of public esteem on her entrance, and in the charaeter of Lady Macbeth, exhibited all that excellence which has so deservedly raised her character in the theatrical world. She looked remarkably well. CHARLES KEMBLE was liberally greeted by the audience, and his perform ance of Macduff eminently contributed to the ge-. neral effea of the play. MURRAY also was well received in Banquo. - The whole went off with the utmost correaness, and powerfully arrested the at tention of the audience. The Afterpiece was Raising the IPind, and Law's, who experienced the most.fiattering reception, was as aClive and lively as ever. EMERY, BLANCHARD, and StyeoNs, who are essential props in this whimsical farce, bad abundant reason to be satisfied 'with the tributes which they respectively received of public favour. On Saturday night, in the first gallery of the Lit tle Theatre, in the Hay Market, just as Mr. LISTON was singing the beautiful air of " Won't you come Mr. Mfig," a case of a painful nature presented it self :—A Lady, in the last stage of her pregnancy, and who had not before had an opportunity of see ing the Africans, was suddenly taken in labour, and notwithstanding all her efforts to suppress her pains, she found it necessary to retire before the conclusion of the piece. She was carried in a sedan chair to her house in Half-moon-street, Piccadilly, when it was discovered, to the great joy of her family, that she was safely delivered of a fine boy. A Naw COMET.—About a quarter, past eight o'clock, on the Alight of Sunday the 4th instant, a Comet was seen to the north of the City of York, at a great height in the Heavens, darting with velo city in a descr,nding direction from N. to S. E. The apparent length of its train or tail might be one foot, of a brightish streaming yellow. The head was very vivid, and seemed the size of a star of the first magnitude. Its duration while observed (the com mencenient of it not being seen) was one or two seconds, and became lost to the sight behind a cloud, when far abeye the horizon. By his Majesty's• Warrant, the following is the Division of the Court of Session in Scotland into the two Chambers : First Chamber, Lord President Avontown, Lords Dunsinnan, Craig ; Armadale, Bannatyne, Balinuto, Hermand, and Woodhouselee, 'to sit i❑ the former Court Room. Second Chamber, Lord Justice Clerk, Lords Polkemmet, Glenlee, Meadowbank, Cullen, Robertson, and Newton, to sit in . the new room above the lobby. Sutcinz.—A Lady who; for a length of time, has been the companion of Major S. was found suspended to her bed-post, at her apartments, in Norton -street, on Friday morning. She bad re. turned from Kent on Thursday evening, and slid appeared in a dejected state; but on what account has not transpired. The melancholy state of the deceased cannot be ascribed to neglect, as she lilted in splendor. LO/VDON SESaTONZ .1'• i i":77"7" .

Standing ,in these relations; in' consequence of which every confidence was placed. in hirn - , - the prisoner availed hi mse lf of the Opportu nity he possessed, not to seduce the prosecutrix, but to attempt a brutal assault on her person. The evidence of the prosecutrix, her mother, a ser, vant of the name of Barnet, and Mr. Robin Son, a surgeon who attended the proSecutrix, fully proved the case on the, part of the prcisecution, and indeed' made out a crime beyond that Lid in the inditi ment. Mr. KNAI) P, for the prisoner, partienlarly rested. on these facts-411M although the assault was alledg ed to have been committed on Good Friday, beings the loth of April, the girl had not informed her - mother till ille . Thursday following; that it was not till the 13th day that a surgeon was called in and that the prosecutrix, at first, attributed the assault to another person. • These circumstances, however, were accounted for, froM the fact of the Prisoner's. having threatened the Prosecutrix, and informed her, that if she in formed her mother of what had happeped, she her self would. be killed, and the prisoner likeWi:4e,whi6, Might have operated on a child of heriender years. The RECORDER, in addressing the Jury; inforrned them, that the law had laid it clown; that in act offence of the nature now charged, Coh;ent conic' never be alleged on the part-of any -child under ten years of age: here the Prosecutrix was ele ven' years 1, but that there was no consent,' seemed' apparent :rom the Whole •ci reit Msta nces of the case. --No endearments seemed to ha ve been -used, nor were even alleged to have b een use ,c for the purpose of inducing such consent : the len der age of - the Pro-ecutrix even forb;e!ci such an idea. rt was obvious, from the way in w hid) the prosecution was concluded,. that the .

Heleft it with the Jury to determine, if the Prisoner was or was not guilty. of the crime charged. Tile Jury immediately found the prisoner Guilty. The ItEcoßnha then said, the prisoner had, from the mode in which the prosecution was rnan : , ,y e d, escaped a convi&ion under a capital charge. he circumstances of the case, ,however, as proved, were of a highly aggravated nature, . and for which the.prisoner, not merely to bring him to. his senses, but as a warning to others, ought to receive exem plary punishment. The sntent - :e of ,the Courr, therefore, was, that the prisoner be imprisoned - in the Jail of Newgate for two yeqrS. Several other cases of a trifling nature were tried, and the Sessions ended. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. Yesterd.:y the Sessions commenced at Hick s 's before Wei. MAINWARING,ESq. and a few other of.the , Magistrates fOr the county. TAciElp,s..!illaikin was indicted for an assault upon Elizabeth his wife. It appeared that the woman kept a public-house in Whitechapel-road. Several squabbles arose between them. The woman, after.. that hOuse was disposed of, made interest with brewer, and obtained possession of a second house. The unhappy jarring was renewed,.and at length this house was shut up. Mutual charges of crimi nation and recrimination took place. The Defend ant met his wife in Bishopsgate-street ; laid hold of ap4 cirjiggpd het rather violently. The Jury found the Defendant Guilty, and he was ordered to pay a fine Or 13s. 4d. and to find sureties to keep th e p eace f or twelve months. Joseph.,Nash, a broker in Well-street, near the Tower, and Peter Lotcheau, a rag-merchant, were indided for an assault upon Charles Trew, the keeper of the Green Man, in Hoxton, .and Charles Hadding, a soldier belonging to the Tower Hamlets Militia, who was quartered in that house. On the other hand, there was a cross indictment, by which, as usual in such cases, the parties changed sides. Nash and his friend . were charged with very gross violence in the former charge, whilst, by the oath of him and his friend; the fault was entirely on the other side., ..The Jury, however, gave credit to the story of the publican, the soldier, and some other persons . present, who spoke to the same etfeet as they did. They found Mr. Nash guilty of the as sault, and lie was sentenced to one mpnth's impri sonnient in Cold-bath-fields prison. FEMALE Fl cxPocl ET.7--Frid . ay night, at the Hay market Theatre, a Well-dressed f oo t man shewed a Lady of the Ton into 'a bdx, which was occupied by, a .Gentleman and two Ladies, The stranger, who seemed pregnant, with her arms across her breast, hegged to be excused, as the contiguous box, which she had engaged, was occupied through- mis take by a large party of fashion, to whom she had conceded her right. She was politely accommo dated, and conversed with one, of the Ladies upon the incidents of the piece, but retired upon the ap proach of the Gentleman, and attached herself to the other Lady, who seemed yery much pleased with her conversation. She now pretended to be ill, and ordered her coach. She had not left the box above twenty minutes, when the Ladies Wfsh ing to know the hour, looked for their watches, and lo they were gone. It now occurred to thew than the fhiritripostor had false arms, when the real ones were ~ by; no means unemployed. Official research) has hitherto beenuasuccessital. ~, ~~j
